Andrew Kocher and C’Havinia Master the $25,000 Markel Insurance Grand Prix
Andrew Kocher and C’Havinia Photos by: CapturedMomentPhoto.com Brisk winds and ominous gray clouds didn’t deter a huge field of horses and riders in the $25,000 1.40m Markel Insurance Grand Prix at the Showpark Ranch & Coast Classic. Of the 68 competitors, only five were able to negotiate all the questions asked within the time allowed. The Markel Grand Prix serves as an excellent warm-up class for Saturday’s grand prix as well as an ideal class for new grand prix pairs. So course designer Oscar Soberon had his work cut out for him in designing a track to challenge every level of experience in the field. “It’s all about the material chosen for each jump and making sure the distances are challenging enough but still fair,” he explained. Notably, nearly every fence on the course came down at least once, but the standout four-fault scores appeared at fence 7, a wide oxer with tricky striped poles out of a three stride; and fence 10, a liverpool oxer, set on the rail with black poles. The tight time allowed of 84 seconds also caused faults for a majority of the entries. With the riders in mind, Soberon made an interesting choice to build Page 2
fence 8b out of a double combination and fence 9 as option fences, with a choice of a more technical inside track or a more time-consuming but smoother outside track. “I built option fences because the time allowed is tight. The more inexperienced riders have the option to take their time on the outside option and finish their track more easily, but it will be easier to make the time allowed if riders take the other inside option,” he said. As the class progressed, the skies opened with a brief but intense rain shower, as faults accumulated for rider after rider. Twenty-first to go, Andrew Kocher on Eagle Valley Partners, LLC’s C’Havinia turned in the first clear round, followed several rounds later by a California favorite, Richard Spooner, aboard his own Chivas Z. Another large percentage of the class passed with unsuccessful attempts at clear rounds before Francie Steinwedell-Carvin on Lapsus Du Lavoir (owned by Prentiss Partners) galloped in twenty rounds later for the third clear round. Eduardo Menezes on his own Catalina became the fourth clear, with the fifth and final clean round from Lauren Hester aboard Hester Equestrian, Inc’s Wender. Kocher and C’Havinia returned

first. The St. Louis, Missouri rider and 8-year-old KWPN mare have kicked off 2015 on a successful note, most recently earning a top ten finish in the $25,000 Ralph Suarez Grand Prix and scoring numerous other top grand prix placings this past winter competing on the circuit in Gulfport. Kocher zipped around the course to stop the timers with a clear round in 38.31 seconds. Spooner and Chivas Z were next to race for the top prize. The “Master of Faster,” whose name is synonymous with grand prix wins on an international scale, had a blazing time until an unexpected stop at the final fence left them with a four-fault score in 51.17 seconds. The final three riders each had one rail on course as they contested Kocher’s clear round. SteinwedellCarvin and Lapsus Du Lavoir brought down fence 12 but had the quickest time in 36.66 seconds, while Menezes and Catalina had a rail at 13b in 37.87 seconds. Last to return, Hester and Wender proceeded carefully around the course, aiming to be the second clear round until the final fence dropped for a four-fault score in 40.52. Kocher praised C’Havinia and explained his strategy. “It’s the first grand prix she’s ever won. We’re
just starting to get used to going with speed - she can jump a lot of clears but has been having a little trouble with speed. I was medium quick today but I got lucky enough.” The East Coast rider is on his first West Coast tour and plans to return. “This is our first time in California; we did the Spring Classic series in San Juan Capistrano, then Flintridge, Del Mar National, and now here. It’s our first time at Showpark and we’re liking it a lot,” he said. “We’re planning a couple more weeks here for early summer then maybe Colorado. We’ll definitely be back next year and stay longer - the weather is a little nicer than middle America!”

CAPISTRANO UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT ANNOUNCES RESIDENCE CHECK PROCESS FOR LADERA RANCH SCHOOLS The Capistrano Unified School District announced to families at four Ladera Ranch schools that the district will implement residence checks to confirm enrollment at the schools for the 2015-2016 school year. In a letter sent home Friday, May 8 to families currently attending Chaparral Elementary, Oso Grande Elementary, Ladera Ranch Elementary and Ladera Ranch Middle schools, CUSD stated it will rigorously enforce student residency requirements in Ladera Ranch. The residency verification is necessary due to the popularity of these outstanding schools, known for their high academic achievement and
parent involvement, and the impact of non-approved, non-resident students attending the schools. “While we support the opportunity for CUSD families to choose where to send their children to school, this must be done through an approved process that ensures placement for students living within an attendance boundary to enroll at their assigned school,” said Superintendent Kirsten Vital. “Unfortunately, we have reached a point where we are at capacity at some of our sites, in particular the Ladera Ranch schools, and the assigned attendance areas.” need to verify that students actually School residency requires that a attending these schools reside within student physically resides within the assigned attendance area of a given school. Families at each of the Ladera Ranch schools are required to submit two acceptable forms of residency verification by May 22, 2015. In addition to the residency verification, the district will use an address verification company and private investigator to enforce compliance. A new anonymous report of suspected falsification of residency, which can be accessed on the district’s website at http://capousd.ca.schoolloop.com,
has also been implemented. Students not residing within the attendance area, or not already approved to attend schools through the district’s School of Choice program, will be reassigned to their school of residence for the 2015-2016 school year. “Ladera Ranch is fortunate to have some of the finest schools in California. These schools have attracted families residing outside the community, resulting in an impact on school capacity,” said Vital. “This residence check process will ensure that families living within the Ladera Ranch area are able to attend these fine schools.”

Low and Slow BBQ in Half the Time A Pro’s Guide to Creating Perfect BBQ the Fast Way
By Jason Dean For many people barbeque is intimidating. We’ve all seen the TV shows featuring professional barbeque cook-offs. The pros make barbeque seem like a closely guarded state secret. They all have their special super-secret dry rubs, homemade sauces, custom blends of hardwoods and smoking rigs that look like a nuclear submarine on wheels. These guys and gals want the home cook to think that good, really good barbeque can’t be achieved without devoting your entire life to the craft. They’re wrong. With the proper planning, if you have a few hours on a lazy summer morning, you can be enjoying succulent, moist, smoky pulled pork for dinner. No nuclear submarine required. Tools & Hardware Required: 1 Gas Grill (Simple & Consistent Temperature Control, don’t be bothered by BBQ snobs. They can’t taste the difference, either. ) Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil Hickory or Apple Wood Chips Meat Thermometer Grill/BBQ Thermometer Grocery List 1 Boneless Pork Shoulder, some times called Boston Butt 1 64 oz. container of Apple Juice (no sugar added) Soy Sauce Garlic Powder Page 4
Salt 1 container McCormick Smoke house Maple Dry Rub 1 package light brown sugar BBQ Sauce of your choice The night before the big day, we need to do a little preparation. We’ll start by making a simple brine for the shoulder. In a large sealable container (big enough to hold the shoulder and about 1 ½ gallons of liquid), pour ½ gallon of hot water. Add ½ cup of salt. Stir to dissolve. Add ¼ cup of garlic powder and 1 cup of soy sauce. (You can play with this brine a little. If you want some sweetness, add some honey or molasses. Have fun, don’t be intimidated.) Once the ingredients are incorporated, add a couple of pounds of ice to chill the brine (don’t skip this step, food safety is very important). Add the pork shoulder and place the entire container in the refrigerator for 8-12 hours. The next day, cut a sheet of heavy duty aluminum foil and add a couple of handfuls of your wood chips. You can pre-soak them, if you’d like, but it’s not required. Roll the chips tightly in the foil and poke it a few times with a fork. Make a few of these packages (3-5, depending on the level of smoke you like in your food). Set the packages aside for now. Start-up your gas grill (make sure you have plenty of gas) and set the flame to its lowest setting. We’ll be
The Ladera Ranch News
using indirect heat, so only turn-on one burner (most grills have two or three). Allow the grill to heat-up for about 15 minutes. While the grill is heating-up, remove the pork shoulder from the fridge. Pour-out the brine and lightly rinse the shoulder. Pat the shoulder dry with a clean paper towel. Now for the dry rub. For easy clean-up, lay a sheet of aluminum foil on your countertop. Place your Pork Shoulder on the foil and liberally apply your McCormick Smokehouse Maple to the outside of the shoulder. Massage the rub in every fold and crevice of the meat. To help make a luscious, sweet bark, next add the brown sugar. Expect to use about ½ pound to liberally coat the surface area of the pork. Allow the shoulder to sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes, while you proceed to the next step. This will give the rub a chance to blend with and draw-out some moisture from the shoulder, creating a nice crust. Grab one of your wood packets. Using tongs, place the packet near the flame of your grill. When the wood chips start smoking, place the dry-rubbed pork shoulder on the grill, opposite the flame (indirect heat, remember). Close the lid. Carefully monitor the temperature of the grill. You are looking for a temperature of around 235-255 degrees.
Adjust the flame accordingly. When the smoke packet is exhausted, you can remove it with tongs, and add another packet until your desired level of smoke is achieved. (4-5 packets is generally a good level of smoke flavor) Allow the meat to cook until an internal temperature of 140 degrees is achieved. Remove the shoulder from the grill/smoker and loosely wrap in aluminum foil. Place the meat in your pre-heated 350 degree oven and continue the cooking process until an internal temperature of 195 degrees is reached. (There are those who say that finishing the cooking process in the oven is “cheating”. To those I would ask to consider that there is no difference in the method used to heat the pork once the desired level of smoke is achieved. Provided we are using dry heat (versus boiling or frying), the method of simply reaching the proper temperature to allow the connective tissues to break down, rendering a perfectly pull-able hunk of pork, is inconsequential. ) After the pork has reached 195 degrees, allow the shoulder to rest on a countertop for another 20-30 minutes. You may then begin the process of pulling the pork, and snacking on perfect pieces of bark. Add your favorite BBQ sauce or not, the choice is yours.

The Steps on How to Barbeque Successfully Trying to barbecue can be a difficult task; however, you are definitely going to enjoy the nice food that will be available to you when you cook it all completely the right way that you should have. You not only need to have the right type of steak, but you also need the right kinds of equipment and knowledge. If you are one of many people that has absolutely no idea on how to barbecue, then there are a few things you should know. Grilling barbecue tends to be pretty tough for a couple of people, but in reality, it happens to be very easy. As long as you have the right tools to grilling, you can then easily make perfect barbecue. Simple Tips On How To Barbecue - Properly Marinate The Steak Marinating the steak could take anywhere, from 12 hours or more just for it to have the sauce and ingredients really cooked into the steak. You can marinate it with anything that you choose, and usually a friend or somebody you may know may recommend a certain type of sauces to marinate it with. However, you really need to consider using garlic, coarsely, basil leaves, lemon, vegetable oil, red wine vinegar, and then adding all of that together with your steak. Let it rest under a foil for the night, and then cook it the following day. - Right Quantity Make sure that you use just the ingredients for the sauce. Don’t forget to have a nice set of steaks, and have enough for everybody at the party. Just keeping in mind the right quantity can help you out a lot. What Do You Need To Make The Perfect Barbecue? - Barbecue Side Dishes Some of the best barbecue side dishes are Cajun Deveiled Eggs,
The Ladera Ranch News
Baked Sweet Potatoe Fries, and grilled Vegetable Kabobs. You can use whatever you want as a side dish. Your overall goal should be to use something that everybody is going to like, not to mention be made in a good way. If you use the most popular side dish but you make it the wrong way, then you need to use something else. - Clean Utensils Make sure that you use the right utensils that are also very clean. Whether a clean spatula or a clean grill, make sure that you clean it all up completely. If it is not all that clean, then you may make the mistake of dirty or soapy types of steak. Aside from just clean utensils, you really need a good type of grill that is still up to date. Keep all of your ingredients near you and get ready to start cooking. Helpful Grilling Tips - Choose The Right Cut Of Meat Did you know that some cuts of meat are better for grilling than others? Many people like to grill strip steaks, but it is all a matter of opinion. It actually depends on you, as there are many types of meat, so you should try to experiment. Don’t just try one type of steak like Filet Mignon without trying the others. See what tastes the best, is the easiest to cook, and also the most affordable. - Don’t Touch It Avoid touching your steak while it is cooking. Try to use your spatula only a few times, and then flip it when you notice that it is starting to burn.
Don’t touch it too much while it is still cooking. - Use Charcoal Using the ordinary gas from the grill could add that gassy type of taste to your steak. Try using a nice hardwood charcoal, similar to what is used in the chimneys at home. These can give that natural smell and taste without that aura of gas being inside of the steak. - Room Temperature If you would like for your food to smell and taste great, keep them at room temperature before you plan on cooking them. The fridge may be a good place to keep them during the marinating proccess, but once the morning rises, keeping it out in a safe place where no bugs can get inside is a great way to keep them cool right before they get cooked. These tips are definitely going to help you on becoming the next barbecue master. While it does take time to churn out steak repeatedly with no troubles, it is definitely going to be difficult to be good at it after only one day. This is why you really need to consider just learning and having fun. Keep all of the tips above for getting the perfect steak that everybody is going to enjoy eating.

Simple Tips to Replenish Your Body The environment’s natural elements can take a toll on the body. However, taking time to refill what has been depleted from your body, such as moisturizing skin and hair, can make you feel healthier and more beautiful. A similar approach can also help make your teeth stronger and make your smile healthier. Though busy days may make extensive health and beauty routines feel unrealistic, there are simple ways to make them more manageable. * Think of the time you dedicate to taking care of yourself as an opportunity to unwind and relax, rather than a chore or another item to check off that never-ending to-do list. * Look for activities that deliver in multiple ways, such as yoga, which helps tone your body while giving your mind a chance to slow down and rejuvenate. * Instead of trying to cram a full body wellness session into a single day, schedule activities that don’t need to be performed daily over the course of a week. Not only does that spread your “youtime” farther, it makes fitting it all in more doable. While a hectic lifestyle can affect the specifics of your health and beauty routine, the tips below are a great way for nearly everyone to get started: Exfoliate. Scrubbing away spent skin cells and the dust and grime of daily life from your face and body allows fresh, healthy cells to grow in their place. After exfoliating, make sure to follow up with a quality moisturizer to smooth and
replenish the moisture in your skin. Rejuvenate. Using a hair mask gives your hair a smooth and glossy appearance, making it feel strong. Similarly, regularly applying facial masks also gives the skin a healthy glow and smoother complexion. Protect. In between visits to the dental hygienist, you can continue to polish and strengthen your enamel at home. One option is Colgate Enamel Health Toothpaste, which helps replenish the natural calcium in your teeth and gently polishes for stronger, healthy enamel. “By polishing our teeth, hygienists go beyond ‘cleaning’ to remove stains and help smooth out enamel, which prevents bacteria from sticking,” said Kristy Menage Bernie, dental hygienist and Colgate Enamel Health Spokesperson. “By adding a toothpaste like Colgate Enamel Health to your morning routine, you can proactively care for your enamel and help maintain the work your hygienist does between visits to help get a beautiful healthy smile.” To learn more about how to help maintain the work your hygienist does in between visits, visit www.colgateenamelhealth.com. Make time for meditation. Take time out of your busy day to sit quietly and mediate. Centering the mind can help relieve stress, improving your overall mental well-being. Ultimately, setting aside a little time each day to focus on yourself can result in a happier, healthier and more beautiful you.
UV and You Protecting your peepers from the sun’s harmful rays Most people aren’t aware that the sun can do damage to their eyes when they are unprotected from ultraviolet (UV) rays. Ultraviolet radiation is invisible to the human eye and damage is cumulative over time, so it’s imperative for everyone - from young kids to grandparents - to take the necessary steps to protect their eyes. Wearing sunglasses is an easy way to shield the eyes while outdoors, but it’s important to look beyond the choices in frames and find sunglasses with lenses that offer the best UV protection. E-SPF(r), or Eye Sun Protection Factor, is a global index created by Essilor International that rates the overall UV protection clear and sunglass lenses provide for the eyes versus going without eyewear. Varied degrees of protection Lenses with an E-SPF index of 50+ means your eyes are 50 times more protected than they are without wearing lenses at all. The index ranges from zero to 25 for clear corrective lenses and from zero to 50+ for polarized sunglass lenses. Finding the right shades To better protect your eyes from harmful UV rays outdoors look for
sunglasses that offer the following: * Lenses with an E-SPF index of 50+ * Large, close-fitting wrap-around frames to reduce exposure to rays coming from around the lenses * Polarized lenses - adds protection by reducing glare reflecting off of water, asphalt, windows and snow Many people are not aware they can also get their eyewear prescription in
sun lenses, and a majority of people don’t know there are options for lenses beyond the ones already in the frame. Xperio UV(tm) superior polarized lenses provide users with comprehensive UV protection on both the front and backside of the lenses and reduce the amount of glare from reflective surfaces. Xperio UV lenses have an E-SPF index rating
of 50+ and deliver maximum scratch resistance and cleanability. From everyday activities to outdoor sports and recreation, your eyes deserve protection from harmful sun exposure. *These materials were provided by Essilor of America Photo courtesy of Getty Images

Garten will deliver a charming insider’s view of the hit TV show, now in its 11th season, and the pleasures of good food, cooked with love and passion, engaging the audience with an interactive Q&A. Tickets for Ina Garten: Barefoot Contessa start at $49 and will go on sale Friday, May 8 at 10 a.m. PT.

Pre-ordering is strongly recommended as there will be a limited supply available for purchase on the night of the show. MAKE IT AHEAD: A Barefoot Contessa Cookbook delivers Ina’s top makeahead recipes and invaluable tips, making meal-planning easier than ever — whether for the week ahead or for a special meal. Eight million copies of Garten’s books have been in print, including her last seven titles that have been The New York Times bestsellers. Segerstrom Center for the Arts applauds Kia, Official Automotive Partner of the Center and United Airlines, Official Airline of the Center. Garten opened a modest store in the Hamptons called Barefoot Contessa, in 1978. Eighteen years later, the store had grown to 3,000 sq. ft., which she sold to start working on her cookbooks. In 2002, Food Network approached Garten to do a cooking show based on her cookbooks and love of entertaining. Garten’s new line of prepared frozen meals, Sauté Dinners for Two, launched in spring of 2013 and is available in 40 national supermarket chains. In addition, Garten has contributed to House Beautiful, Martha Stewart Living and O, Oprah’s magazine.

Olive Crest’s Gala raises nearly quarter million dollars Photos by: Carla Rhea and Ken Juber Olive Crest’s nautically-themed fundraiser at the Balboa Pavilion in Newport Beach, was a heartwarming affair and one that garnered more than $254,000 to benefit its Project Independence Program for 14 to 24 year-old at-risk youth and young adults. The program’s message was brought home at the event by 18-year-old Apple Taylor, who spoke about how Olive Crest lifted her out of an extremely abusive home environment through Project Independence. The Cal State Fullerton freshman theater major said, “With the help of Olive Crest, I was able to find out who I am. This organization cares passionately about the kids that they help.” Taylor closed by singing a beautiful rendition of “I Dreamed a Dream” from Les Miserables. Olive Crest CEO Donald A. Verleur spoke about Project Independence, which is one of the largest programs that helps 14-24-year-old at-risk youth and young adults in the state. “Each day, we help to give 1000+ youth the strength, guidance and basic necessities of life, which they need to become productive and successful adults,” he said. “I have seen first-hand how young adult lives have been saved from a life of abuse or neglect and come to a place where they can graduate from high school, get a job, learn to live with others, and start their own families.” Bryan Kaltenbach, President of Food4Less, was presented the inaugural Founder’s Award by Olive Crest Founders Dr. Donald and Lois Verleur. The award, a whimsical bronze sculpture of happy, laughing children, was breathtaking. Kaltenback joked that the last time he was in the room at the Balboa Pavilion he was 17 and attending his high school prom. More serious, and quite emotional, he said of the honor, “I am completely humbled by what you do. You not only save children, you save their lives, and I will treasure this award the rest of my life.” Steve Bernardy, Olive Crest Trustee Board President and Merrill Lynch Senior Vice President, was presented Olive Crest’s Champion for the Children Award by OC’s Board Chairman Jim Woodside, who is Vice President at Oltmans Construction Co. Bernardy was touched when he was presented a piece of art drawn by an Olive Crest youth, who lives at the Wheeler house. Gala Co-Chairs and Olive Crest board members Lorraine Bader and Lori Feeney oversaw the evening’s festive cocktail reception, silent and live auctions, sit-down dinner, and the Golden Ticket opportunity drawing, with the winning ticket holder selecting the Holland America cruise from the live auction prizes. The live auction drew some spirited bidding with a one-week condo stay in Oahu, Hawaii, a Park City condo five-night package, a pair of pearl earrings from Traditional Jewelers and a one-night stay at the Newport Beach Marriott, a suite at a Clippers game, a suite at a Lakers game, and a sushi dinner for 20, courtesy of Bristol Farms and its master sushi chef Yoshi Kubo. The crowd loved the Smooth Harbor Yacht Club band and danced until the wee hours. A conga line was part of the mix, when it was announced that it was Steve Bernardy’s birthday. A good time was had by all! Since 1973, Olive Crest has transformed the lives of over 70,000 abused, neglected, and at-risk children and their families. The Olive Crest family maintains a lifelong commitment to the youth and families they serve, even after they have graduated from its programs. Olive Crest serves nearly 3,000 children and families each day throughout California, Nevada, and the Pacific Northwest. www.olivecrest.org. Page 12

Playtime Pointers for Feline Fun, How to M ak e P l a y t i m e M o r e I r r e s i s t i b l e f o r Ca t s
Playtime between cats and their owners provides the opportunity to bond in a fun and engaging way. Whether your cat is captivated by fun new toys or climbing and exploring the heights and corners of your home, spending quality time with your pet allows for the making of new memories. Encouraging active playtime will keep your cat healthy and fit, all in the name of a good time! Feline Playtime Tips It’s important to keep your cat active by engaging them in playful activity a few times a day. Help your cat conquer playtime and stay active with these simple tips and toys from the folks at TEMPTATIONS Brand. It’s as easy as play, pounce and purr! • Rotating Toys: Don’t let your cat get bored with the same old playthings. Swap a rotation of toys in and out of the mix to keep your cat alert and entertained. • Cat vs. Mouse: Bring the age-old rivalry of cat vs. mouse to life with the new Temptations Snacky Mouse Toy – which makes playtime irresistible with an interactive bottom-weighted, mouse-shaped wobble toy designed to dispense delicious Temptations treats as cats bat, bobble and play with it.
• Fun at New Heights: Cats love climbing, pouncing and exploring. Place enticing cat toys on top of boxes, scratching posts and other feline-friendly surfaces to encourage curiosity during playtime. • Hide and Snack: Hide your Temptations Snacky Mouse Toy
amongst other toys and watch your cat purr with pleasure when it discovers the scrumptious smell of the treats within. • Meowing Mirror: Mount mirrors in play areas, which will not only amuse your cat, but also help him socialize! For information on the new
Temptations Snacky Mouse Toy, as well as more ways to foster fun playtime with your pet, visit TemptationsTreats.com or Facebook. com/Temptations. Photo courtesy of Getty Images
Barbecue Sauce, an American Flavor Tradition By Mike Thayer It’s grilling season, BBQ season, it’s time to fire up the smoker, the gas grill, the portable Weber, rub two sticks together, it doesn’t matter - put some meat on the fire! And what is the most popular accompaniment for a plethora of meats cooked in the great outdoors? No silly, not ketchup, its barbecue sauce! The person who invented BBQ sauce is unknown, but whoever he was, he was a genius! References to the sauce started appearing in 17th century English and French literature about the formation of the American colonies. The rest is history and boy has BBQ sauce been kicked up a notch with all kinds of flavors and varieties created over the last 400+ years! A traditional flavoring for pork, beef and chicken, sauce can range from watery to thick, from being heavy on the vinegar to being loaded with spice. Heck, there’s even mustard and mayonnaise based BBQ sauces. It’s a regional thing, there’s Carolina BBQ, Tennessee whiskey BBQ, Texas BBQ and the favorite of yours truly, Kansas City BBQ. What is your favorite sauce? Kansas City BBQ style: This is
a thick, rich tomato based sauce that’s got some spice but is heavier on the sweet. Tomato, brown sugar and vinegar are the base ingredients. It doesn’t really penetrate the meat and is more like a frosting than a marinade. It glazes REAL nice though when put on the meat about 10 minutes before pulling off the grill, a beautiful finish. This is the most popular style of sauce in the U.S. and what you see the most of in the bottled varieties on the grocery store shelf. Be careful with the store bought stuff though! The high sugar content of the “ready” varieties tend to burn real quick so keep an eye on your dinner. Texas BBQ style: This has more kick than Kansas City style. It has less tomato, less sugar and a lot more spice such as cumin, black pepper, chili pepper, and even chili powder. Meat drippings and hot sauce - Tabasco - are always a part of this style and fresh veggies like green bell pepper and onion are often added. East Carolina mop: This simple but tasty sauce was pioneered by the African slaves of Scottish settlers in the region. It’s a straight forward combination of hot pepper flakes, ground black pepper and vinegar. The
reason it’s called a mop is because this thin concoction is literally mopped - basted - on the meat throughout the cooking process, the flavor really penetrates! With little if any sugar and no tomato in this style, East Carolina mop is a sharp contrast to other sauces. Western Carolina dip: From the hilly areas of North Carolina, most American sauces can trace their roots to this one. The recipe usually consists of a base of black pepper blended with tomato paste or tomato sauce, or ketchup, with vinegar added to balance it out. Like the East Carolina mop, this is a thin sauce that is mopped on the meat throughout the cooking process. South Carolina mustard style: This is a whole new BBQ sauce experience. Early German settlers developed this one and while good on chicken, its tailor made for pork. A little thicker than its Carolina cousin sauces, a simple recipe consists of mustard, vinegar, spices and a little sugar. Fantastic on a pulled pork sandwich topped with coleslaw. Tennessee Whiskey style: Made
famous by the Jack Daniel’s World Championship Barbecue Invitational, this style has become so popular it now deserves its own category. This combination of vinegar, whiskey, molasses, spices, and Worcestershire sauce gives BBQ a whole new flavor profile. And BBQ sauce isn’t just for pork, beef or chicken anymore! Try the Western Carolina dip on grilled shrimp or fish. Put your favorite style on a pizza instead of traditional tomato sauce. If lamb isn’t your favorite, try it again with some Tennessee Whiskey sauce! And here’s a personal side dish favorite, toss some grilled cauliflower florets, baby carrots, baby portabella mushrooms and bacon bits together with some Kansas City style sauce. Delicious! Get your tongs out!
